    Anyone see it? I saw the game, and I have some game notes on it.Andrea Bargnani was excellent. He was on fire in the first half shooting the ball, and outstanding on the rebounding and defensive ends. He got his first career double double tonight, and came near to a triple double. Believe me. He was shotting swats to and fro, and doing an excellent job on the defensive end.Garbajosa was very solid. His mid range was on tonight, and he did the nifty shot fake, go, and get fouled move that he pulls atleast once or twice every ball gameTJ notched a double double in the first half for crying out loud. He was excellent passing the ball again today, and abbused the Warrior's perimeter, going straight to the hoop whenever he wanted to.It's great to see Mo Pete notch 20+ points again. He was excellent today. He played like he was possessed from behind the line, going 5-8 down there. He was excellent shooting the ball, and had some nice attacks at the basket.I'll get a Warriors note in. Great to see this kid, Monta Ellis play again. This kid is an unbelievable offensive player. He went for 30+ tonight. It was unbelievable. I can firmly say that he is one of the quickest players in the League. He attacks the rim constantly, and with ease, and has terrific finish around the basket. He finished basically all his drives to the rim, and got plenty of And 1's. Also, he has good long range accuracy. I was thinking about it, and I would compare him to Gilbert Arenas offensively.And finally, tragic news. Jose Calderon fell down after going for a rebound, and he injured his back. He had to be carted off in a stretcher. I hope he'll be back this season, but we've got to find a replacement. Darrick Martin won't do as the full time back up....We need to do something. Very sad news......oh yeah, we won! Season high in points. We scored 120.

    Good win for the Raps, Golden State is a very talented and energetic team. I just saw the box score, and based on that, Bargnani went all out. 18 points, 10 rebounds, and 6 blocks? Damn, that's a great game (numbers wise). Why didn't my man Freddie Jones play?

    Bruised calf...... :Swoon: He should be back Tuesday for the Suns game. He had to miss the 2nd half of the Nets game because of it.

I was shell shocked when they brought out the stretcher. I thought he was going to go right up. Then the tears came out, and Gabrajosa and Pape Sow started crying and the crowd was very sympathetic, major shout outs to Jose "the Man" Calderon.

    Yeah, I saw Pape Sow praying, because the same thing happened to him. That's how he got his neck injury. Also, I'm sure TJ Ford knows something about this..

    Yeah I think TJ Ford got injured the exact same way as Calderon, he was motionless for a longtime. To the game now, the Raps had a good team effort today from Rasho starting off quickly to MoPete finishing it off it was overall a solid effort by everyone, I just hope we keep on winning and hopefully sneak into the playoffs.
